I love, as you say, the immediate covering power although I often think of it as a bit like plastering!<br /><br />What I especially like is painting over an older "failed" painting where the knife hits some parts and misses others leaving scraps of colour to show through, like this one:<br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/8046408@N04/527613483/in/set-72157600231087960/<br />The palette knife allows me to be more expressive, same as you have done with your iceberg study.<br /><br />Nice blog, btw, especially the cat drawings and paintings :o)daviddrawsandpaintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17431945969048461283noreply@blogger.com
